Answer:

This tells us that the line with slope -1/5 passes through the two points (16, 7) and (11, 8).  The previously unknown x-coordinate is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with slope m = -1/5 passes through the points (x, 7) and (11, 8).  Find the value of x.

The slope of the line through these two points is found from the slope formula and is:

        8 - 7

m = ----------- and the value of m is given as -1/5.  Therefore,

         11 - x

           1

m = ----------- =  -1/5

         11 - x

Cross-multiplying, we get (1)(5) = -(11 - x), or 5 = -11 + x.  Then x = 16

This tells us that the line with slope -1/5 passes through the two points (16, 7) and (11, 8).  The previously unknown x-coordinate is 16.

AfilCa [17]
The information's given in the question are of vital importance. These information's should be very useful while getting to the desired answer of the given question.Let us now concentrate on the problem that needs to be solved.
The height of the sign that casts a shadow of 4 meters is = 5 meters
Then
The height of the tree that casts a shadow of 30 meters = (5/4) * 30 meters
                                                                                          = 150/4 meters
                                                                                          = 37.5 meters
So the tree casting a shadow of 30 meters is actually 37.5 meters in height. I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand.

Find the taxable income of a married couple with two children, who have a combined income of $75,000.
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$47,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

The total income of a married couple =  $75,000.

Number of children = 2

Therefore to find the taxable income of  a U.S.  family is given by the following formula ---

taxable income = total income- exemption deduction - standard deduction

We know that exemption deduction for a U.S couple as fixed by the government is $15,600.

And the standard deduction for a U.S couple as fixed by the government is $12,200.

Thus in order to find the taxable income of the couple, use the formula

taxable income = total income- exemption deduction - standard deduction

                          = $75,000 - $15,600 - $12,200

                          = $47,200.

Thus the taxable income is $47,200.

What is 67% of 296 ? Show your work
seraphim [82]
First, you would get the decimal form of 67% by moving the decimal (At the end of most whole numbers.) over two, giving you .67.
Next, multiply 296 by this new decimal- .67*296=198.32.
There you go! : )
